Awful individual

Started off good, got us on the right track to get my girls back and then just abandoned my case entirely. Very hard to get a hold of and very unreliable. Do not recommend to even my worst enemy.

Posted by Mark | January 31, 2022 | Hired Attorney

Smart and reliable

Luis did a great job on my case. Met with him and he offered my great advice on how to get legal issue resolved. Very happy with the results.

BEWARE

Failed to appear in court. Now won't return phone calls, won't respond to letters. Happily took the retainer fee, but never sent a bill for services and now can't get a hold of him or locate him to have my retainer fee returned.

Posted by Baldero | March 16, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Awesome!

Very glad that I hired Mr. Cuellar to help me with my child custody case. Very down to earth with easy payment plan.

Posted by Jada | January 11, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Great choice

I am very glad I used Mr. Cuellar for my child support modification case. Will use him again if I ever need legal representation.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.

Disbarment issued in TX, 2023

updated on 02/12/2024

This is the most serious penalty for a lawyer. If this attorney is currently practicing law, you should contact the Texas State Bar to understand the reasons for this disbarment.

Partially Probated Suspension issued in TX, 2023

updated on 09/05/2023

Partially Probated Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice, he or she will be on probation, meaning the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
